This Z4 wants to be caressed into corners in these tires. 🤔

Hi folks

Well, I desperately wanted to put Fuji to bed today… and despite putting a time up that would ordinarily be beyond my expectations I feel like there is more time here and maybe a shot at world top 10…

Sorry @bliprunner, your move

I had an optimum split in the previous session of 1:47.7 flat.. I know it’s possible but… might be another fools game chasing it

Tomorrow will be another day and as I am on vacation I will have plenty of time to come back. This combo is really great but also stressful. This Z4 forgives nothing and we quickly waste precious time.

Good drive and enjoy

I have a feeling that I won't be able to catch you here.

You joke but I want it ! Tunable of course up to a certain PP.

I...I'm ahead of @Dan_Tes?? See what happens when I (mostly) hit each sector on the same lap. And sector 1 could have better, but I had a poor exit from the final turn to start the lap and put a couple tires into the gravel coming out of turn 1. All said, I fully expect to wake up tomorrow and see Dan has blown by me. Unless he doesn't run another lap here. (hint hint)

Some car + tyre combos only work when devoting some good hours to understand the dynamics. If You'll feel impatient or give up hope then nothing will work. Be mentally prepared to toil over this. Don't forget our superhero @Tidgney who's guidance & ghost is a very big help/assistance. Study his lap guide well & then see how You'll reap the rewards.

I appreciate the advice. I already watch @Tidgney's guide each week to get the most I can out of each TT. I just like to complain! And my inconsistency drives me nuts sometimes.

The average delta of the world’s best times:
+0.91 % for Tidgney (WR 156/ 180 events)
+1.44% for @Dolph Drago (WR 4187/ 51 events)

In an all-time database (1,069,841 PSN accounts), Dolph Drago is among the fastest 0.39%.

I think he doesn’t need mental preparation to be a formidable opponent 😅

Thank you! I'm not completely inept. I mostly just get frustrated when I don't perform as well over one lap as I feel capable.
